▼ SELL

Dear posted 32 in a 39-point hammering by Melbourne at the MCG — well below his 39 BE and the worst score since his R3 struggles. Three of his last four rounds have been at or below BE (38, 51, 32), confirming the R6 104 was a flash, not a breakout. Cash gen has turned negative at -$643/wk and the role has never locked in at Hawthorn. Sell — there is no case to hold a boom-bust forward bleeding cash at $267k.

Community Intel· T3

Calsher Dear impressed on return in R6 vs Port (2 goals, 14 disposals, 8 score involvements, 8.2/10). Multiple commenters say he belongs at AFL level and plays better in AFL than VFL due to his pack-crashing and spoiling instincts. Community view is he leads the race for a permanent spot ahead of McCabe.
